BRAIN, MIND and IMAGINATION: How each of us creates a world of our own - Tapa blanda

Dr. Czerner translates the discoveries of dozens of world-renowned authorities into a page-turning story about the mystery of consciousness and the awesome power of the human imagination. We imagine everything we know and feel - even the objects right in front of us. The old adage, “seeing is believing” is dangerously misleading. Each of us sees a world that is shaped by our past experience, our prejudices and the stories told by those we trust and love. This book deals with what may be the most important topic of our time. Our future hinges on the world that we imagine. We are discovering how each of us builds that world anew.

Dr. Czerner is the author of What Makes You Tick: The brain in plain English (John Wiley & Sons, 2000). He is clinical professor emeritus of ophthalmology at the University of California Medical School and California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco.
